Yearning for Fire

I am like a petrol pump at night,

Surrounded by dusty highway lights.

This solace makes me cry,

For none but loners come by.

Rejected and forgotten,

Treated like a clandestine.

I wish I would burn,

Divine the dark sky like a firework,

And the people would applause,

The stars would drink all my remorse.

Free at last I will be,

With serenity and company.
